2 different Smart Mailbox approaches:
  1. Mailboxes: Any of Sent, Trash;
     Conditions: Date is not within last 30 days;
     Rule: Conditions=[just exempting conditions]
           Action=Delete Permanently

so when does it run this?

The *RULE* is run when a message is "added" to the Smart Mailbox, i.e. when a message in the source mailboxes meets the Smart Mailbox conditions.

How exactly MM notices the "addition" of messages to a Smart Mailbox isn't 100% clear, but I *think* it is triggered by appearance of new messages in IMAP mailboxes or changes in the metadata of existing messages that either MM does itself or is alerted to by the IMAP server during a sync operation.
